28.06.2005 Would a two-tier health care system reduce waiting lists in Canada? No. Parallel private systems don't cut public waiting lists. In fact, research evidence shows they lengthen waits for health-care in public systems. Countries with parallel public and private health-care systems have the longest waiting times.
